Ottavia Li Volsi - Italian Tutor

Introduction

Hello! My name is Ottavia, and I am a native speaker of Italian from Sicily, Italy!

I have a bachelor鈥檚 degree in film studies and a Erasmus Mundus Master degree in Women鈥檚 and Gender Studies.
I also have a diploma specializing in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language from the University for Foreigners of Siena.
I offer classes to students from 11 years and upward and have experience working with students from around the word in private as well as group classes.
I offer classes for Exam preparation (CILS) as well as specialized courses for College/University and tourists.
I am a very creative person so I always try to be creative with my students to experience interesting and amusing classes.
I love traveling and reading and I think that thanks to these two passions I deepened a sense of curiosity, interculturality and tolerance.
I am also very fascinated by languages, and I always challenge myself by learning new ones 鈥� Deutsch now!

I'm looking forward to our free trial lesson! :)

"Skype Italian lessons, what a great idea. What a great mix of technology and education. I believe this is the future, and 抖阴视频 [Italian] is at the cutting edge of it." Schmidt B. - Retired

"My husband and I retired to a small fishing village on the coast of Italy and we wanted to be able to communicate with the locals, but there were no good Italian teachers. Live Lingau was our solution." Jan & Mare M. - Retired

"I have been a 抖阴视频 customer for several years and appreciate their straightforward, easy to use system, including the wide choice of teachers and flexibility provided to choose and even change if necessary. They are reliable and provide very good customer service, answering questions quickly and efficiently. I have been very fortunate in my choice of Italian teacher Luisa Ardigo who provides excellent, very professional instruction. She is always on time to the minute for our lessons and flexible when necessary. It is obvious that Luisa loves her job, her enthusiasm mixed with her vast cultural knowledge has given me so much more than a language, it has brought me into the heart of Italy. I look forward to my weekly lessons with sheer pleasure thanks to her!" Kathryn E. - Unknown

"[My Italian tutor] is the greatest. I like the way that he teaches and he can even speak Chinese. Thank you teacher." Wuiping X. - IT Manager
